JAKE WESTBROOK RUMORS
Joe Blanton, Jake Westbrook Square Off as Phillies and Cardinals Open Series
Well, this brings lots of bad memories. Ryan Howard on the ground, Jason Motte appearing out of nowhere and actually pitching well, David Freese being uninjured just long enough to do some damage.
But, it's 2012, the Cardinals are without Carpenter, Pujols, Berkman and La Russa, and the Phillies are without Howard, Utley, Oswalt, Madson, Ibanez. The two teams barely...

Postseason snub wakeup call for P Westbrook
(Eds: With AP Photos.) By R.B. FALLSTROM AP Sports Writer Jake Westbrook's new routine has led to early success this season.
Once a week, but only once, he abandons the no-carbohydrate diet that has helped him shed 20 pounds and splurges for an Italian dinner because his wife is such a good cook. On the mound, every delivery begins the same, with his glove at mid-chest.

Westbrook working with new delivery

Will Jake Westbrook Slide
The St. Louis Cardinals got Jake Westbrook at the 2010 trade deadline, and he performed well enough down the stretch to earn a 2-year contract with a mutual option on a third year. Last season he did not perform like the 2010 stretch Westbrook, though to be fair he did pitch to his career averages. What do we want to to see from Jake in 2012? More 2010 Westbrook, and less 2011...

St. Louis Cardinals To Sign Roy Oswalt, Trade Jake Westbrook?
It appears likely that the St. Louis Cardinals are about to sign free agent pitcher Roy Oswalt “soon,” according to sources. Oswalt reportedly turned down offers from at least two other MLB teams, including the Boston Red Sox and Texas Rangers, to remain in the National League, where he has spent his entire 10 year career.
The deal is not complete as of yet, although...
